I fished below Wendall bridge today on the Henry's Frork in a big rainstorm. There was the biggest hatch of March Browns I have ever seen! There were so many fish coming up you could just cast and catch em. I dont know how many I caught, I lost count after 30. Nothing real big but lots of fish. My friend caught a fish that an osprey came up and stole from him within 2 feet of him, boy do I wish I would have had a camera but it would have been ruined by ll the rain. The last fish I caught was the biggest it was a 15 inch Brown with a big old hook jaw and it had a huge humped back on it. It was by far the most fish I have evere caught on dries. Every fish was a rainbow except the last fish which was a Brown. I caught all of them on a size 14 parachute March Brown (pretty much the same thing as an adams.) It seemed like the Harder it rained the better the fishing was.
